ArkansasStaged Presents a Staged Reading of “Field Notes From Mother Earth”

July 8, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free and open to the public

Take in an evening of contemporary theater with a staged reading of Field Notes From Mother Earth by Ashley Edwards, directed by Jenny Guy, presented by ArkansasStaged.

A work in progress, Field Notes from Mother Earth is the story of two cultural anthropologists—a teacher and her student—who are sifting through the field notes they’ve collected over years of research. As the play moves through the memory of their travels, the layers of their relationship are revealed. The play beautifully challenges the traditional notion of motherhood and uses stories from all over the world to explore what women pass down from one generation to the next. An epic piece of magical realism, the play unearths the relationship between mentor and protégé, and traverses the worlds of mythology, ghosts, and natural disasters.

Event is free and open to the public (suggested donation of $5).
